Rotor Clip TX-75ST Pa Retaining Ring 3/4 in Shaft

Product Description

The ROTOR CLIP TX-75ST PA is an external self-locking retaining ring designed for 3/4-inch diameter shafts. It seats directly on the shaft without requiring a groove, using a 14-prong locking mechanism to resist axial displacement under load. Manufactured from SAE 1060-1090 steel (UNS G10600-G10900) with a phosphate finish for corrosion resistance, this ring delivers a thrust load capacity of 142 pounds. The ring measures 1.076 inches in free outside diameter and 0.015 inches in thickness, making it a compact, reliable fastening solution for rotating or sliding shaft assemblies. Licensed technicians and maintenance professionals working with mechanical drive systems, motors, and power transmission equipment rely on this style of ring for secure component retention without machined grooves.

This retaining ring is suited for shaft assemblies in industrial equipment, HVAC motor shafts, pump assemblies, and power transmission applications where a self-locking external ring is required on a 3/4-inch shaft. Its phosphate finish provides mild corrosion protection appropriate for indoor mechanical environments. The ring fits shafts ranging from 0.745 inches minimum to 0.755 inches maximum shaft diameter, accommodating typical shaft tolerance ranges found in standard trade and industrial applications.

• Phosphate finish provides corrosion resistance in standard mechanical environments
• Hardness rated at 84-86 HR15N for consistent performance under mechanical stress
• Fits nominal 3/4-inch shafts with a precise tolerance range of 0.745 to 0.755 inches

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style external self-locking retaining ring for nominal 3/4-inch diameter shafts in mechanical, HVAC, pump, and power transmission assemblies where groove-free shaft retention is required.

Installation Notes

Installation and removal of self-locking retaining rings should be performed by qualified mechanical technicians using appropriate retaining ring pliers or installation tools. Always de-energize and lock out the equipment before servicing shaft assemblies per applicable safety standards. Inspect the shaft surface for burrs or damage before seating the ring, as surface defects can affect locking prong engagement. Do not reuse a ring that has been removed, as prong deformation during removal compromises retention performance.
